'Iraq for Sale' bonus scene: Soldiers outsourced to KBR

Some people are actually ignorant to say that the soldiers get long term benefits. The government goes out of their way to deny veteran's benefits every day. I'm a veteran that's been denied benefits for almost a decade now. If you have some job, and you are compairing your pay to a low rate military mechanic or something then you are not being paid enough and should get another job that doesn't involve taking over someone's country.

Please tell me more about kbr because im applying for them thanks!

I worked for KBR in Iraq and talked to low ranked soldiers and learned that I earned 5k more a year. Money is good but it is not that much as some believe. A soldiers job is very dangerous and you have my admiration.

Between a KBR contractor and a soldier, the soldier is compensated far more than the KBR contractor.

The Soldier receives long term benefits and training. Those KBR contractors paid for their own training and they do NOT get long term benefits. Once the KBR contractor's job is up, he goes home without an further benefits.

Dollar for Dollar, the soldier gets more compensation, as it should be.

Soldiers & KBR? All the same. All murdering invaders of foreign lands & I'm forced under threat of prison to pay for it!

KBR didn't subcontract radio repair. Sorry.

He's a liar. KBR doesn't fix radios.

Halliburton used to own KBR Kellog brown and root I think. I worked for Halliburton but was laid off on june 4th 2009. After 5 years....nothing.

pat442389. Yes in fact Dick Cheney became CEO of Haliburton (owns KBR) in 1995. I am not sure if he was still CEO when Iraq was invaded but I know he still owned MANY MANY stocks of Haliburton, Haliburton pumps the oil, Blackwater (owned by Haliburton) protects the pumps, KBR does most everything else.
